Best Handyman Poems

Instead I became
your personal handyman
seemingly to repair
your past leaky ceiling relationships...

Maybe to super glue
the many pieces
of your broken heart back together
or oil your squeaky insecurities...

I spent much time
tightening nuts and bolts
in your suspicious mind
seeing...

Oh you broken infinity; gray in nature.

Allow me to repair you.

I am a handyman of words,

breaking down this soft-spoken language in rhythmic remedy,

yet only for you, my good neighbor.

The universe is infinite; yet not quite infinity,

I needed to step up and conquer my fears.
If I didn't, I would never be free.

At first, I didn't do much but sit and cry.

The spiral staircase made her high heels sing.
The handyman had heard raw music ring -
clickety clack, clickety, clickety clack!
Musing how the heads of woodpeckers spring,

and found her with a noose about her neck

Who can take a hairball?
Blame it on the cat
Flush it down the tank
And you laugh a lot for that

It’s the handyman
Yes, it's the handyman
